Chapter 22 Building a House and Buying Land



"What are you blaming for? Song Li, what are you talking about?"

Doctor Li knew her. She was from Song Jinxiu Village and had been here several times.

"Ah, Grandpa Li, why did you come out? Didn't I tell you to wait in the house? I'm talking here."

Song Jinxiu quickly grabbed Li 녊놅's arm and tried to pull him back to the backyard.

Li was being dragged by her, and his feet wouldn't move. He asked, "San Ya, I saw you quarreling with him. Is he trying to default on his debt?"

"Nothing happened,"

Song Jinxiu quickly stood in front of Li, winked at Doctor Li behind his back, and mouthed, "One thousand taels in exchange for the prescription for Ma Fei San."

Then she shouted, "Go get the banknotes, hurry up, otherwise if my grandfather is unhappy, there will be no room for negotiation."

Doctor Li was stunned, but he could understand Song Jinxiu's lip movements.

One thousand taels, this girl is really asking for too much. Does she know that one thousand taels is the total profit of their clinic for two decades?

However, if it is really the secret recipe of Ma Fei San, one thousand taels is really not expensive.

Considering the girl's usual words and deeds, it's better to believe it than not.

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll get it right away, I'll get it right away."

Doctor Li ran to the back hall. Song Jinxiu was afraid that if she ran too slowly, she would regret it.

Li said proudly: "Look, this matter needs an adult to come. You argued with her for a long time just now, and I saw that he was almost helpless. Now that I am here, he is afraid."

Song Jinxiu said quickly: "Yes, yes, yes, no, grandpa, you are from the countryside, and he is an official. Of course, he, a doctor, must be afraid of you."

Li said quickly: "Hey, he was okay in our village, but he is nothing outside. He just bullies you because of your age. When adults show up, he becomes scared."

Although Li looked pleased, Song Jinxiu secretly groaned in her heart.

It's said that the prescription for Ma Fei San by the Medical Saint was burned. Where did she get it from?

However, although she did not have a recipe for Ma Fei San, she still had another recipe for anesthesia, and it was better and safer than Ma Fei San.

Brother, if I sell your recipe to others, does that count as helping you pass on your knowledge?

Soon, Doctor Li came over with a stack of silver bills and handed it to Song Jinxiu.

"Here, there's paper and pen. Where are you going to write?"

"Hey, give it to me, give it to me."

Li Xiao hurriedly took it first, and while checking its authenticity behind people's back, he muttered in his heart: What is Doctor Li's intention in giving San Ya a banknote in front of so many people? You want someone to steal it?

I know that outsiders are not trustworthy.

Song Jinxiu looked at the paper and pen, smiled bitterly and said, "Wait a moment, I'll send Grandpa back first."

After checking the banknotes, I found that they were all real and from Chase Bank, which was good.

But how could it be one thousand taels? Didn't they say that Doctor Li gave 400 taels, leaving 600 taels?

Yes, it must be that San Ya is selfish and wants to keep four hundred taels as a dowry.

Alas, girls are extroverts, there’s nothing we can do about it.

But since it's in his hands, let him take it first. This girl is still young, don't let anyone fool you.

Song Li quickly put the banknote into his arms.

If Song Jinxiu hadn't pulled him this time, he would have almost run back to the ward.

The four brothers and sisters discussed with their grandfather behind closed doors for a long time. I decided to use the money for building the house and the rest to buy land.

"You guys are still worried that you won't be able to keep the money if you have too much. Buy some land and rent it out. You can live a worry-free life by paying the rent every day.

Oh my, I didn't expect that the first earth-father in our village turned out to be you two stinky boys. Hahahaha, grandpa, I’m jealous. ”

The wrinkles on her happy face are all smiling.

Song Jinxiu: ...

This old man, what do you mean the earth is made up of these two stinky kids? These two sisters are so grown up standing here, can't you see them?

Besides, she earns the money, okay?

She seriously suspected that the old man had spent all his money to buy the land, but he didn't want to give it to her and her sister.

Finally, Song Chunsheng couldn't listen any longer.

"Grandpa Li, the money is earned by Jinxiu. Oh, Jinxiu is Sanya, and Sanya is Jinfang. This land must be used as their dowry in the future."

"Ah, that's all for the future. Maybe you'll become rich with these lands, and Sanya and Xiaoya's dowries, so how can they be small?"

Song Li laughed it off but didn't answer directly.

Song Jinfang: "Grandpa, my name is Jinfang and my sister's name is Jinxiu. These are the names we just gave them."

"Okay, okay, we have names, okay."

Song Jinxiu was helpless. It was obvious that men were favored over girls here. She was just perfunctory when talking to the sisters.

Fortunately, her brother was a good person, so she wasn't in such a bad mood.

He took the silver note and the house drawing drawn by Song Jinxiu and left happily.

After seeing Li off, Doctor Li came over immediately after listening in the corner for a long time.

"Hey, Master, are you just going to give Song Li a thousand taels of silver? Aren't you afraid that he will take advantage of you?"

"Why are you still eavesdropping?" Song Jinxiu gave him a dissatisfied look.

"I am anxious, aren't I? You guys closed the door, so I just wandered around here, not intentionally eavesdropping. Aren't you afraid that he will take it?"

Song Jinxiu: "Li is a good man, we trust him."

"Tsk tsk tsk, money can make people's hearts flutter, Sister 께, you must be on guard against others."

"So what? Just be greedy, can money be compared with life?"

Song Jinxiu looked at the distant sky through the mottled shade of the trees.

"Without him, we would still be in the Song family. Not to mention building a house and buying land, I'm afraid our lives would not be guaranteed."

Doctor Li was speechless.

Every family has its own problems.

"Well, Master Xiao, do you really have a prescription for Ma Fei San?" Doctor Xiao Li looked eager.

Song Jinxiu sighed, "Hey, bring some paper and pen."

Senior Brother 뇾 놅's recipe was exchanged for 1,000 taels of silver. Grandpa went home to work, and the four siblings continued to learn to read.

However, the next day, people came from the village. They were a few aunts and grandmothers who came to the county town to attend the market.

When Aunt Cuihua saw Song Jinxiu, she cried out in pain.

"Hey, my dear mother is here, are you San Ya? You are walking on the street, and I don't even recognize you."

"San Ya, is this dress you are wearing made of fine cotton? Oh, this fine cotton is so soft."

Song Jinxiu smiled quickly, "Aunt Cuihua, Second Aunt, what are you doing?"

Second Auntie's eyes were filled with pity. "Auntie came to see you. How's Chunsheng's leg? Is it okay?"

"Oh, the doctor said the bone connection is good and the recovery is good, but you can't walk yet."

As Song Jinxiu ushered them into the ward, she called out, "Brother, your aunt is here to see you."

Song Chunsheng sat on the bed, watching seven or eight villagers come into the room all of a sudden. He felt flattered and at a loss.

Aunt Cuihua looked at Song Chunsheng and slapped her thigh, "Oh my god, how come Chunsheng has gained so much weight?"

The second aunt also said: "He has gained a lot of weight, but he has become whiter. He is really getting more and more handsome."

Aunt Huozi also said: "Is this Xiao Qiusheng? How come this child looks like a human being? Poor boy, he finally looks like a human being."

Song Jinxiu choked. What was this Aunt Huozi saying?

But she still smiled gratefully.

This is how Aunt Huozi speaks. The same words have a different meaning when they come out of her mouth. In fact, she is not a bad person. Among those who donated money to her brother, her family donated 200 coins, just like Aunt Cuihua's family. They are one of the few families who donated 200 coins.

For farmers who lived on copper coins, two hundred coins was not a small amount. An adult man working in the county town could earn about a hundred coins a month.
